Excerpt from Illustrations of the Holy Scriptures: Derived Principally From the Manners, Customs, Rites, Traditions, Forms of Speech, Antiquities Climate, and Works of Art and Literature, of the Eastern Nations; Embodying All That Is Valuable in the Works of Harmer, Burder, Paxton, and Roberts The original and acute remarks of Michaelis, on many points of the Mosaic laws ano ritual, though sometimes bordering upon the fanciful, disclose a profound acquaintance with the genius of the East, and are generally entitled to deep attention. As the authorities employed in the preparation of the ensuing pages are usually quoted in a very general way - for 'he most part merely by citing the writer's name - it will probably be rendering an important service to many of our geaders, to give a more ample view of the sources upon which we have drawn for materials. The list is by no means complete, nor, as many have served us at second hand, is It perhaps practicable or necessary that it should be; but the most important and valuable will be found here grouped together, and ordinarily, by turning to this catalogue, the entire title, including edition and date, of any work cited in the ensuing pages simply by the author's name, will be found.

George Bush was born on June 12, 1796 in Norwich, Vermont, where his grandfather, Timothy, immigrating from Connecticut, had settled. He was the son of John and Abigail (Marvin) Bush.
The former, a graduate of Dartmouth, had studied law but never practiced. George Bush graduated from Dartmouth in 1818 and studied theology.
George Bush first served as tutor at Princeton, preached for a time in Morristown, New Jersey, and in 1824 went as a home missionary pastor to Indiana. Here he was ordained by the Salem Presbytery, March 5, 1825, and installed pastor of the church in Indianapolis.
A statement which he made in the pulpit to the effect that there was not a shadow of Scriptural authority for the Presbyterian form of church government caused a controversy with his session, which in 1828 brought about a termination of the pastoral relationship.
From 1831 to 1847 he was professor of Hebrew language and literature in New York University, also serving, 1836-37, as instructor in sacred literature at Union Theological Seminary.
Although opposed to all ecclesiastical rites he consented to be re-ordained to the New Church ministry privately in August 1848.
Before his second marriage, he had a study in the third story of a building on Nassau St. , described as a "perfect den of learning, " where barricaded with books he might be found at almost any time of day or night. Even those who were not able to accept the theological conclusions of his later days, professed great admiration for his scholarship.
Between 1840 and 1858 he issued a number of commentaries on books of the Old Testament. A work of his which was widely read and created much controversy was Anastasis: or, The Doctrine of the Resurrection of the Body, Rationally and Scripturally Considered (1844) in which he opposed the doctrine of the physical construction of the body in the future life. He also issued from June 1842 to May 1843, the Hierophant, a monthly journal of sacred symbols and prophecy, and beginning in 1848 edited for a number of years the New Church Repository and Monthly Review.

In 1845 George Bush associated himself with the Church of the New Jerusalem, and for the remainder of his life, as a writer, lecturer, and preacher, promulgated the doctrines of Swedenborg.
A modest, kindly man, he made no display of learning, but without regard for personal interests, stubbornly contended for what he believed to be the truth.
In 1825 George Bush married a daughter of Hon. Lewis Condict of Morristown, who died November 9, 1827. He got married second time on January 4, 1849, to Mary W. Fisher.
